"Shiela" (Kaley Cuoco) has an unique gift. She can travel through time. Now only for a very limited amount of time, but enough to influence the lives of those close to her. She meets "Gary" (Pete Davidson) and what ensues for the next ninety minutes is a messy drama that demonstrates how they fall for each other and how she tries to use her powers to make his/their life better. Of course it doesn't all go to plan, there are lots of pitfalls and boy are we made to suffer them all too! The story does have an interesting premiss - what might we do to help our loved ones deal with - or avoid - trauma, but neither actor here really manages to draw the audience into this really lacklustre and extremely verbal series of shallow scenarios that end, well - you do not need to use any more imagination that the writers did to arrive at that. It is frequently quite cringe-making, and in the end I really couldn't have cared less whether they did or didn't get run over by Santa's rogue sleigh. Very mediocre Christmas television fayre, this - and instantly forgettable.

Seemed uninspired and super cheesy to me, didn't get past about a half-hour.

<em>'Meet Cute'</em> is weak. From the get-go, really, I didn't click with this one. I will say that Kaley Cuoco is decent, not that her performance is anything all that notable but she is the film's standout in my opinion. This is the first time I've seen her act in a meaty role, same goes for Pete Davidson actually - and he's meh, one or two moments but overall forgettable here. To reach for positives, I note that New York City looks neat and the plot isn't as repetitive as I thought it was going to be whilst watching. The filmmakers mix it up enough, the problem is moreso that what is portrayed isn't all that captivating to watch - not helped by Cuoco and Davidson lacking true chemistry, which is of course a necessity for a romcom.
